Fogeys have arrived

My parents took this past week to head into the Dreaded D.C. area, risking everything in their adventure to see their other daughters and those respective families. They seem to have returned with many trophies from their experience, and Mom has documented much of their safari in her usual photographic manner (probably at least 500 pics to download).

Among their other triumphs, Dad bagged a Tiger for Mom. She'll be settling in with it tonight, after I surrender her computer room to her once more.

My niece and nephew sent me a copy of The Science of Harry Potter, so I suppose this means I will be obliged to actually read the books, now, instead of settling for seeing the movies. Ah, well, the sacrifices we make for those we love...

I won't detail the rest of the loot the folks brought back. I have many thank-you notes to write, though, so I'd best get to it, or the cost of postage will have gone up before I finish.

Happy and Prosperous New Year to all! And, celebrate safely!
